Notes on using the Continuous shooting modes
◆
h Shooting continues as long as holding the shutter button down. In auto bracketing mode however,
just press the shutter button once to shoot 3 frames.
h If there is limited space on the media, as many frames as can be recorded on the available space are
shot. When auto bracketing, if there is insufficient space on the media to record 3 frames, no pictures
are taken.
h The focus is determined in the first frame and cannot be changed in mid-sequence (excluding Long-
period continuous shooting).
h The exposure is determined in the first frame, however, in Long-period continuous shooting the
exposure is adjusted for the scene being shot.
h The speed of continuous shooting varies depending on the shutter speed.
h The speed of continuous shooting does not change with the quality setting.
h The flash cannot be used as the flash mode is set to Suppressed flash.
h For top 4-frame continuous shooting, final 4-frame continuous shooting and pictures taken using auto
bracketing, the results are always displayed after you shoot.
This mode shoots up to 4 frames (max. 1.5
frames/sec.). When taking the pictures, the images
appear and are recorded.

This mode allows you to release the shutter up to
40 times (max. 1.5 frames/sec.) and record the last
4 frames. If you take your finger off the shutter
button before 40 shots have been taken, the
camera records the final 4 frames shot before you
released the shutter button.
If there is insufficient space on the media, the
camera records as many of the shots taken just
before the shutter button was released as will fit on
the media.
